Me

Cooking for me is very stimulating. It combines equal portions art, science and adventure! Every new dish I prepare is like a journey of discovery which I feel like sharing with others, and hence this blog.

I’ve always loved cooking, first with my mother and then since marriage, with my mother-in-law. Both of them have taught me many of the dishes I’ve cooked and also encouraged my interest in learning about these dishes. While my mother’s cooking was mainly from south Karnataka, my mother-in-law’s is from the coast, mainly the Udupi/Kundapura region.

Since moving to the US, I’ve also been exposed to many other cuisines from around the world. Trying them at home, and making them a success has been a very satisfying experience.

I’ve modified many of the recipes that I’ve come across, either to make them vegetarian, or to make them easier to make, or even to make them more flavorful. Sometimes for all three!

I hope you find something you like in my blog. Do try these recipes and let me know if you like them. Your comments will be highly appreciated!

For the love of cooking

Tag Archives: coriander powder

A great combination made of simple vegetables! My son loves anything green on his plate, whether its spinach soup, green gram dosa, cooked peas… etc. This is one among his favorites and loves to finish up his plate very quickly which doesn’t happen that often. 🙂

The combination of potato, spinach and fresh ginger and garlic with the spices brings a wonderful aroma and makes you feel ravenous!

Close a lid and allow it to cook until the potatoes are tender (about 6-8 minutes). Now add the chopped spinach and coriander powder and stir it well. Add salt if necessary. Allow it to further cook for 3-4 minutes.
